SNUB: Beyonce

Two nominations, in lesser categories. "4" was released inside the eligibility period, but apparently voters didn't dig on "Run the World(Girls)," "Countdown" or "Best Thing I Never Had." Aw, does this mean no Grammy show performance, the first time in, like, forever? (Bey, granted, will have her bey-bay around then, to be fair.)

Hubby Jay-Z got four nods, for his collab with nominations leader Kanye West on "Watch the Throne," for Best Rap Song and Performance ("Otis"), Best Rap Album and a packaging nod. -KH
